    National socialists that only wanted socialism for their true Christian evangelical Germans. And no one else. Catholics sort of stood up to them, which is why we have vague references to religious institutions resisting nazis. But yeah Christians went balls deep almost immediately into being nazis.

    Maybe a few catholics with an actual spine and a conscience stood up to the Nazis, but the catholic church as such supported them. Guess who played a major part in organising the "rat lines" for smuggling wanted Nazi war criminals into South America after WW2?
